Posted by Sara bonner | December 17, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

Fantastic attorney

I had a case in June, 2015. It was my first time in trouble and I was unfamiliar with anything about the law. I received several different letters from law firms offering consultations when I didn’t even know that I really need a lawyer. After speaking with Dan I knew that I needed the help and hired... him immediately. He walked me through the case and helped to get me 2 years probation for 3 felonies. He was always available to answer any question I have even after my case was finished. I recently had a new case where I was wrongly accused and did not hire Dan because I did not think he would be as beneficial in a different county. I was way wrong and wound up consulting Dan, unfortunately too late. I only wish I would have hired Dan from the start for this case because it would have saved much time and aggravation. Best attorney ever and would use him for any case anywhere (but hopefully there isn’t a next time).

Excellent Representation

Daniel was absolutely fantastic I had a temporary restraining order, that was granted off baseless accusations. The accusations though we're serious and without daniels knowledge and passion of the law I'm not sure I could have received the result of a full dismissal without him. He's a fantastic att...orney who is really attentive to your needs and willing to guide you throughout the whole process. I would definitely recommend Daniel to anyone who is going through any type of legal trouble he will fight for you and will get you the absolute best result.

Great Lawyer

Dan was a great lawyer, he was always available right away when I had any questions or concerns by both e-mail and phone. He explained everything to me with my case in detail and didn't leave anything out with court fees, license suspension, etc.

Outstanding Attorney

Having a few legal issues, I contacted Atty. Schatz. After my initial consultation, I knew immediately that Attorney Schatz was the lawyer for me. He was real, down to earth, listened to me, asked alot of questions, identified issues, analyzed my case and gave me alot of information on the law. We... discussed outcomes, strategies. He was so reassuring. He is knowledgeable, tough, but compassionate and caring. He is a fantastic lawyer. He is a strong advocate in the courtroom and I can tell he has the highest respect of the judge in both courts he represented me in. Both my cases had a great outcome, much better than I had ever hoped for. In one case, I got community service only, in the other I had NO points assessed on my license for a speeding ticket. I owe it all to Dan. He is a great attorney. I could call him anytime with a question or concern and he would respond almost immediately. He reassured me alla long the way and no question was too small. I feel so lucky to be a client of Atty. Schatz. He did great things for me and now I can go on with my life. I highly recommend him. AN OUTSTANDING ATTORNEY.

Excellent attorney

Mr. Daniel Schatz represented me in my legal issue.He was very knowledgeable, and professional. He always kept me informed of the next step throughout the process reassuring me along the way. He was always honest with me and always made me feel comfortable. I always felt that he had my best interes...t in mind. He always explained things to me and was always available to me. Dan responded to all of my calls or questions promptly, I always felt comfortable with him and he always treated me with the utmost respect. I could not be happier with the end result. Sometimes it is hard to find that "perfect" attorney who is both knowledgeable, but is also a REAL person. . But I truly found that in him. I would definitely use him again and will most definitely recommend him to others. He genuinely cares about his clients and gets the job done.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
